If you notice, his shirt is different from before. It is now “DFX” when it used to be “DKFX” so I’m thinking he dropped the “K” and he dropped the Kat. Also hoping that the Kat didn’t land on it’s feet…know what I’m saying.

It is a good catch Gnatevil, but sadly credit for that catch actually belongs about 10 months ago to commenter Angela (comment posted at March 24, 2015, 5:38 pm on comic The Chain Part X which currently has a post date of March 29, 2015 due to Patreon infusion).

I kinda figured we would find him here. He’s from the area, he does masks and make-up as they’ll need for a movie like that, he’s pretty good at it and he’s only a starting business looking to get a solid foot in the market.

Well, I guess that makes the choice on who to pick for a background civilian much easier. I mean, that tumbleweed is just fantastic. Also, I think I am first? I submit my application for that honor. :p

I didn’t notice the direction of the tumbleweed until you mentioned it. Either even the weed is trying to vacate the premises as well or the sudden wind from the stampede of people leaving is drawing it in the direction they fled. Either way, it’s a nice touch by the artist…

Same day, certainly. Next day, maybe. James was 6 days ago and James and new guy are both from the same dating site. While it’d be awkward, I don’t think a, “Well I am still looking too, you know” would seem that odd after the next week. Especially with Ellie obviously being an “alpha” date.

Watch Ghostrider for a second time, read the Necromonicon for the first time, watch the Pokemon movie for the first time.
I’m not sure which would be harder on my sanity, but that doesn’t mean I want to find out through trial and error.
Mostly trial.

Meh – I could watch Ghostrider again. It wasn’t THAT bad. The sequel however… URGH – now that was REALLY bad. The first one was just disappointing. BTW – when it comes to reading the Necronomicon – referring to reading it the first time is redundant. No one survives to read it more than once…According to “History of the Necronomicon” the very act of studying the text is inherently dangerous, as those who attempt to master its arcane knowledge generally meet terrible ends.

We have tumbleweeds. You want them? You’re welcome to them. Our neighbor has leased his land to a conservation effort, so he doesn’t plow the things up as they sprout. Some times they’re thick enough to hide a fence and look like a hedge in winter.
They get heavy enough to weigh down fences. With enough wind behind them, they endanger those cheap plastic grills that cars now have.

Here in Idaho, on windy days we do see both tumbleweeds AND plastic grocery bags. I like to think that tumbleweeds are native, whereas plastic grocery bags are an invasive species that is multiplying at an alarming rate.

No, but Meadow from comic Number 500 was stated by Rusche in the comments to be Damien’s sister, and it looked like she posted that picture to …. Twitter I think. So Damien might recognize Ellie from that.

I wonder how many walk-on civilians they needed. Will Ellie and green shirt guy show up pretending to be several different civilians? Glasses and fake mustaches and different shirts and whatnot. Maybe some of the crew will be pressed into service.

It’s one of those two or put photos of random people on orange construction barrels for other walk-on civilians. Which would fit the quality one expects from direct-to-DVD or SyFy fodder.

I know it won’t work with these two, but i really would like it to. being a 38 single for a number of years guy. i am really relating with this character. Even if he doesn’t get together with Ellie i hope he’s a reoccurring character. It’s all for selfish reasons. hmm…. i have been reading this comic for years now, and i think this may be the first time i commented. i’m a lurker. so in a sense…. FIRST!

Hi Everyone. With just over a week into February, we are doing a great job keeping Chris in the better half of the Top Web Comic list. With a rank of 50, we have at this time (2/8/2016 2:23 pm EST) 435 votes for an average daily vote of 62 votes per day. This is down from the 70 votes per day that SHOTGUN SHUFFLE received at the beginning of the month. Our current hourly average vote is around 2.4 votes per hour.

To get SHOTGUN SHUFFLE into the top twenty, we are going to need a vote campaign based on at current calculations, five votes per hour minimum. Top ten ranks pull around 12 votes per hour, with top five pulling an average 22 votes per hour this month.
